§ Mr. Tony BanksTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what checks are made by his Department on the efficiency of international postal collections and deliveries to the United Kingdom; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. LeighMy Department makes no such checks. These are operational matters for the Post Office, which regularly monitors the quality of both incoming and outgoing international postal services. I understand that the results of these checks are made available to, and discussed with, the Post Office Users National Council.
